As we round the corner on this week the finish line is starting to come into sight! Ending the week on Day 68 from seed and these girls are really starting to shine! Front left is just a crystal packed beast with golf ball sized buds (or bigger) well spaced out along the stem, more like blueberry tends to grow. Front right is showing very similar traits, while back left and right are larger more connected buds, more like Slimer tends to grow. Cool to see the two different bud structures in the same grow, fun thing with autos you know they will be close but always some differences! Buds are just plumping and firming, getting ready for their big day on another few weeks. Water intake has slowed as expected for this stage in life, 32L every four days instead of every three. Was an easy week work wise, just a light defoliation of mainly the back two plants, probably 20 or so leaves each. Back two are still seeming to be maybe a week behind front two, but they seem to be catching up fast. May have to get the second reservoir set up at the end of need to ween first two off the feed earlier than last two. Good thing is I have three full sets of AutoPots so not a problem, although I may have a problem with collecting grow gear hahaha. Can't help myself, I see stuff selling for super cheap used or clearance from stores closing and think "sure I could use another set of those". Got my last set of 15L pots in upgrade packs on clearance. Each pack came with the pot, the tray, and the 5.0 valve with all the fixings for just !!! Honestly how do you say no to that I don't know. Lights 90% @ 16" @ 750-800umol/s Water 32L every four days UV lights one hour per day mid cycle 6" Exhaust 30% 4" Intake 50% 6" oscillating fan x2 50%

Pre-flower time... Top dress feeding for the first time for this lady added with some worm casting. Switching lights to 12/12 in a few days, Monday but until then each day I'll decrease the lights. Other than that things have been super easy, once again she's strong. She's thick she's healthy she's happy. If I can count correctly I may have about 16 tops, so things will be clear later on In flower. We'll see the true tops. Plus she is putting off a really leafy greeny smell, if that makes any sense. Other than that looking good

Targona: 57 days since my little girl sprouted from seeds🌱 Eighth week of growing my Apple Fritter Automatic 🍎🍏🍎 Nutrients: As I mentioned last time, I switched to mostly organic nutrients from Plagron and Biobizz💓 - Plagron Alga Bloom - is a complete fertilizer designed exclusively for the flowering phase. It contains all the important substances that the plant easily absorbs 🌸🌾 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Plagron Sugar Royal - Sugar Royal is a supporting enzymatic fertilizer designed exclusively for the flowering phase. It contains hormones, enzymes, vitamins and trace elements necessary for proper flower development🍭🍭🍭 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Plagron Green Sensation - Green Sensation is a professional flower stimulator and activator. It contains all the necessary ingredients to support flowering and also the formation of sugars, and thus the overall yield 🌊🌿 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- JUNGLE X Environ is a highly effective complex preparation for stimulating flower formation. 🌸🏵️ ---------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------- BioBizz Bio pH - is an organic pH regulator. An aqueous solution of citric acid, which is naturally found in citrus fruits 🍋🍋 - I didn't use it this time, because the pH of the dressing was 6.5 + ---------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------- BioBizz Calmag - 100% vegan and certified product Calmag is made from calcium carbonate and magnesium sulfate, supplemented with humic acid. Unlike other products, the all-natural Biobizz CalMag does not contain any nitric acid and therefore does not affect the NPK values ​​or EC of the solution 💩💩 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Terra Aquatica pH test kit - Very reliable, easy to use and inexpensive. The pH Test Kit conveniently replaces expensive pH meters. It includes a wide range from 4.0 to 8.5. 🌈 General: Apple Fritter Automatic 🍎🍏🍎 - The plant is getting more and more beautiful, its buds are getting thicker, they are really all white, as if they are covered in sticky resin. The stem, leaves and buds have turned a little pink. I wondered if it was a lack of phosphorus, but based on the nutrients I give them and the overall pH, which is 6.5, I assume that this is the classic coloration of the plant during maturation. 🌱🏵️💚Nevertheless, I preferred to add Calmag to the watering yesterday and also feed it with Alga Bloom in case it lacks important elements. Training: The plant is very tall. Sometimes I turn it all over so that the light also shines on the side branches on the side of the tent. Otherwise, I don't do any training, I just cut off some excess leaves in the classic way. Plus, this girl doesn't have many leaves, she's a beautiful genetics as usual with strains by Zamnesia 💚🌞🌞 Light: Mars Hydro TS1000 The plants respond effectively and the light is technically very well managed - I try to have 18 cm between the light and the plants, so I move it up regularly 💡💡💡 Thanks for the likes :) See you soon 😍😍

Learnt some hard lessons this round! Next time I'm adding dolomitic lime to buffer soil aswell as always pHing from now on! Other than the lockout mid flower and slightly smaller buds as a result I'm happy with my first attempt at a actual tent grow. The buds look dense and frosty and under a scope a few are starting to turn cloudy. Next round is gonna be only three as I'm not comfortable with it being so cramped! I reckon I'll let her go another week with feed the I'll do a two week water only flush! Happy growing to all ✌️

This lady is going from strength to strength following last weeks slug attack! I'm sure it may have slowed growth just a little while she was repairing the wound created by the slug munch. The weather has been nice and consistent, all adding to the healing process and the low stress training encountered. 👍🏻

Gracias al equipo de Sweet Seeds, Marshydro, XpertNutrients y Trolmaster sin ellos esto no sería posible. 💐🍁 Sweet Mandarine Zkittlez F1 FV : Genética feminizada y fotodependiente de floración ultrarrápida. Primera generación filial (F1) resultante del cruce entre un clon élite de Zkittlez (muy potente y resinoso, con un marcado aroma tipo Sour Diesel cítrico, entre naranja y mandarina) y nuestra Sweet Mimosa XL Auto (SWS94) que también tiene tonos aromáticos cítricos entre naranja y mandarina. El resultado del cruce es una vigorosa variedad híbrida fotodependiente muy resinosa, potente y aromática. El aroma de esta variedad es delicioso, con tonos Sour Diesel muy especiados, tonos de naranja y mango, fondo amaderado y lejanas pinceladas frescas como de pino o hierba recién cortada. Algunos individuos pueden mostrar flores y hojas con tonos púrpuras y rojizos al final de la floración.

So, sad day friends. I got spider mites and had to throw all my plants out. This is what I think happened: About 2-3 weeks ago I noticed some freckling on the lower leaves. I looked at it and thought it might be a cal/mag issue so I added cal/mag that week and went about my business. I saw it about a week later and it wasn''t getting any better so I added more cal/mag. This continued for about 2-3 weeks until I finally took off a leaf and examined it under my microscope. I saw little bugs crawling everywhere and my stomach just dropped. My fiance did some quick research while I was panic ripping leaves off (see pictures) and she correctly diagnosed it as spider mites. I debated with myself and my close friend and ultimately I decided to throw all the plants in my tent away. I know that there are a lot of people who will say that there are things I could have done to make it to harvest but what it came down to is the people I take care of and personal pride. I consider myself a caregiver and I give away product for free that I am not going to use to my family and close friends. I thought to myself "Would you smoke this?" and when my answer was "ehhh, I don''t know", I thought about how it would feel giving it away and immediately made the decision to destroy them. I take an immense amount of pride in my product and this hobby and if I am not going to stand behind it I would rather just start over. I grow from my heart (shout out to the Grow From Your Heart Podcast!) to help people and make sure my family is not getting unsafe product from sketchy people. To spray pesticides in flower that may hurt people and have little bug carcasses in there just goes against that in every way and is just wrong in my opinion if you are giving it away to others. If you are the only one smoking it then it is one thing to take that risk but not with your patients. I want my medicine to help people, not create or exacerbate health issues. It is also important to note that the mites had moved from my flower tent into my veg space and took over my auto berry as well. Damn things are crafty and fast. So that is why I made the decision to destroy them all after 3 months of res changes, pruning, and manifolding on a slow vegging strain. Feel free to chime in with your opinion but I do not and will not regret my decision. I threw out my new clones, mother plant, and auto berry I had on my veg side as well. Shout out to all the other growers out there that do the right thing by their patients. Caregivers > Cash croppers. For anyone curious, I removed everything from my tent and scrubbed it all with a 20% bleach/water solution. All equipment has been wiped down and stored in the garage away from any organic materials. I will give them until tomorrow (2 days) to air out and dry and then I will wipe it down again with bleach and wait another 2 days. Hopefully that will make sure everything is dead and will not come back next grow. That next grow should start in about a week. It sucks but sometimes it happens and you gotta be ready for it. Lesson learned. Never bring outdoor plants into your indoor garden even if it is after just a day or two. A bunch of people on here and Reddit warned me and I did not listen. Now I have learned the hard way and it feels like when your parents "told you so" haha. Thanks to everyone who stopped by along the way. Stay tuned for a new grow coming soon. It is going to be some cool new limited edition Mephisto Illuminautos. I am pretty excited. Good luck out there and always grow from your heart folks. -Grim
